6 Things You Should Know About Jake T. Austin's Character on ABC Family's Series 'The Fosters'

Get ready to meet The Fosters! ABC Family's new compelling drama series, which premieres Monday, June 3 at 9/8c, centers on an interracial lesbian couple raising a diverse set of kids, both foster and biological. Co-created and written by Peter Paige, Brad Bredeweg, Simon Fields, and GregGugliotta, Jennifer Lopez serves as an executive producer of the series and we could not be more excited she’s putting her name on a show based on a multi-ethnic family, especially featuring LGBT characters.

An added bonus is seeing two of our young Latino actors stars in the series – budding actress Cierra Ramirez (Girl in Progress) and cutie pie Jake T. Austin.
